PC Freezes any Wiz in here?

[doo-bee-dan]

yo tuners i know tt has alot of i.t men,so here goes.have windows 7 installed but after the welcome screen the pc freezes & a blue screen appears but does reboot right away.however the bluescreen doesnt have any codes like the regular bsod.

so eventually i boot up the pc with 'mini xp' and played around in their for a while,everything works good using mini xp but when i decided to do re-load windows got the same issue after windows 7 was installed sucessfully

Things i've tried

Clear Cmos
Reload windows 7
Memtest
Chkdsk Repair/Seagate Disc Wizard
Bios update
Thermal compound is about 6 mths old.

could it be a onboard video or CPU overheating issue?

It could be a piece of hardware that is not compatible with windows 7. The mere face that it boots XP ok and not 7 tends to lean towards that. What you should do is check the hardware specs of your pc and search for any know issues with windows 7.

If it were overheating, you would not get a BSOD, the PC would just shut off.

same thing happened to a PC i was fixing. it was the hard drive.

check your hard drive online to see if it is compatible with win 7 (most likely the cause). hope its not the hard drive itself going bad...

[doo-bee-dan]

havent notice any noise coming from hard drive & the hd utilities didnt pick up any errors.my last resort i took out the wireless card which was installed & the pc runs a little more stable with no issues.

wireless card prob bad,will see how it goes for the rest of the day with the card out.

What OS came pre-installed? It's most likely a hardware incompatibility. Check your device manager for any issues, if so, disable it.

boot in safe mode and see if that works...

did u try re installing the OS?

[stev]

where u buy ur parts? i doubt it can be a compatibility problem if ur pc is just 6 months old. unless u buy or using an old ass hard drive.


what size of the hard drive? and is the OS 32bit or 64bit?

[doo-bee-dan]

brought the hard drive by wizz computers,seagate 500GB.the os is 32bit

i did reinstall the OS same issue,things working quite ok for now since i pulled out the wireless card which was installed,not sure if thats the piece of hardware thats bad,will see how it goes.

*your GPU has a problem
*your hdd has a surface error
*or one of your ram stics is bad or has incorrect timings
